We use doku...partly because its supposed to still be usable in a disaster 
(though nobody is maintaining such copies or have ever tested such.)

We have some customization work to have auto updating wiki pages.  Like a map 
of our what's on all our digis.  Or what zone is on what global.

We at one time used a planner plugin, to list/schedule recurring work, special 
tasks, etc.  But, we continued to have weekly staff meetings were we would 
repeat the information of our coming week.  Former $boss said it was more for 
the benefit of co-workers, though $boss was the only one taking notes.

New $boss ended the weekly staff meetings and wiki usage dropped off....though 
I try to throw stuff in there when I can, because its habit I keep working on 
(I joked that we should have an internal blog....because that's where my habit 
started from....)

our wiki happens to also be running on our loghost.... so occasionally some 
kind of integration is investigated.  Perhaps when our student get's up to 
speed....
